How to Study Logarithms

A structured approach to studying Logarithms for SNAP Quantitative Aptitude.

Study Plan for Logarithms

3

Day 4: Revise & Test

Revise key formulas and concepts without looking at notes. Take a practice quiz to test your understanding.

What to Focus On

  • Logarithm is the inverse of exponentiation: a^x = m ⟺ x = log_a(m)
  • Base 'a' must be positive and not equal to 1
  • The number 'm' must be positive

  • log_a(1) = 0 for all valid bases a
  • log_a(a) = 1 for all valid bases a
  • These properties are universal and apply to all logarithmic systems

  • Product Rule: log_a(mn) = log_a(m) + log_a(n)
  • Quotient Rule: log_a(m/n) = log_a(m) - log_a(n)
  • Power Rule: log_a(m^n) = n × log_a(m)

Common Mistakes to Avoid

log(a + b) = log a + log b

log(-x) is always undefined

log_a(b^n) = n × log_a(b) only when n is a positive integer
